Pyrex is a go to brand for me and I’m sure many others. It has a long-standing reputation for its high quality and durable products. I love the idea of this easy grab dish as the handles are a perfect addition. Many dishes tend to have smaller handles which makes it very difficult especially when dealing with hot dishes. I do find though that the lids often need replacing and when I was looking for individual replacements for this dish they were difficult to find. Overall a great product though! -
PowerBar Triple Threat Caramel Peanut Fusion
If you're thinking of 'indulging' in this bar, beware the calories and nutrtional content! For the size of the bar, it packs a wholloping 210 calories, 9g of fat and 25g of carbs! Yes, it does have 12 g of protein, but you're gonna need a serious... +
If you're thinking of 'indulging' in this bar, beware the calories and nutrtional content! For the size of the bar, it packs a wholloping 210 calories, 9g of fat and 25g of carbs! Yes, it does have 12 g of protein, but you're gonna need a serious workout to burn this off! The taste is a nice peanut butter/chocolate blend, but honestly, I would rather just eat a chocolate bar, not to mention the $$ of these! -

Full disclosure I received this product free to try, and it was quite a large amount that lasted quite some time. The raspberry lemon flavour has a nice 'zing' to it, and when prepared, it tastes similar to a carbonated lemonade...except, that with its added ingredients it actually becomes quite thick and unpleasant if you add too much. I am not magnesium deficient, but I will caution you about not only too little magnesium, but also overingestion, which can cause serious health consequences. Over the course of about a month or so, I didn't notice a significant difference in the touted benefits. The price of the product is also quite costly. Overall, if you are not known to be actually deficienct (based on medical tests), I would be hesitant to recommend supplementation unnecesarily. Keep in mind that although these products are touted as being 'safe' and 'natural,' they are not regulated by Health Canada. -
Tim Hortons Iced Coffee

Although I prefer my coffee to be piping hot, I do occasionally enjoy a cold coffee beverage. I’ve tried multiple versions of this iced coffe, and I’m not sure if it’s how they make it, but each time it’s often quite diluted even if I ask for less ice. Additionally I find these to be far too sugary. The calories in these beverages definitely add up! You can actually make your own iced coffee products at home to your liking, plus they are much healthier! -

I love Ghirardelli chocolates but wish they were easier to find here in Canada! I miss visiting the store in Chicago where they would make and sell cupcakes and treats! These squares are delicious and a nice combo of flavours. The caramel just melts in your mouth and the chocolate is luxurious! Yum! -

As we are now in the prime gardening season I thought I would leave a review for this. I have been using Miracle Gro brand for quite some time and overall I’m very impressed by the quality and the results obtained. This brand does tend to be a bit more expensive especially for the premium soil, but it’s worth the investment and you can definitely tell from your crops! Give it a try! -

During the pandemic, we've all spent more time indoors and fairly isolated than ever in ours lives, so it's important to find fun ways to pass the time. Scrabble is one of my all time fav games and fun for the whole family! It's a great way for younger individuals to learn new vocabulary, and for those of who are competitive, it can get fierce!! I love it! -

I like the Burnbrae Farms brand but typically buy the egg whites. I thought I would try these for general purpose cooking and baking. There was absolutely no difference in taste or quality in comparison to your generic everyday eggs. The cost was double the price though. Overall I’ll just stick to my regular eggs -
